Wanda Johnson
Wanda Johnson, a natural-born singer and entertainer, hails from a large family (born, 1963; one of nine children...all girls) in a farming community in upstate South Carolina. She has lived with music all her life.
Performing semi-pro since the early 1990s, Wanda is quickly gaining notoriety as a new star on the international scene. She sings with conviction and great emotion and has become known for her ability to really connect with an audience.
In addition, she writes much of her own music. Almost without exception, she is accompanied by Charleston-based pianist/composer Shrimp City Slim (Gary Erwin) and his band. (www.shrimpcityslim.com)
With three European tours under her belt, numerous USA festival appearances (including Chicago, Pocono, more), and three CDs in worldwide distribution ("Call Me Miss Wanda", "Natural Resource", and "Hold What You Got" - NEW for 2008), Wanda's story continues to unfold.
This is going to be a big year for Wanda Johnson. Continuous gigging in the Southeast with overseas touring in France, Macau (China), Poland, and the Czech Republic. Please see 'News' and 'Calendar' for updates.
